Import data from bpmn file into one string/char value Matlab

Hello,

I have a consistent bpmn file (similar to xml file) and i would like to read it with matlab and store the all file data in one string or char attribute. I have tried with

textread(file, format)

but the best i can have is a 2358796x1 char and then assemble each line to recreate the file but it's a very long process.

Is there another function to do this ?

Thanks for helping.

hello

have you tried with readlines ?

Well i think i have a too old matlab version, this function is undefined for me.
